One morning I noticed a woman sitting alone at the bus stop. She seemed not to go to work hurriedly. She wasn't going anywhere as well. Was she waiting for the bus? Did mall(商场)buses come this early when the stores wouldn't be open for hours? As I drove by.l heard a voice say, “Give her a bottle of water, "

“She looks like she is sleeping. Why would I wake her? What is wrong with me? What is so hard about doing the right thing? It's just a bottle of water!"

So I drove by her again and again. Finally, I pulled my car into a parking zone, stepping out with a bottle of water in one hand and a twenty-dollar bill in the other. Each step seemed to fill me with purpose and focus. No words can describe what happened between us at that moment. I thought I was bringing her a cold drink, but instead I was bringing her a hope she needed. We sat together for a while as she talked. She had a sad story to tell, but she was no longer sad. Before we parted, I grabbed all the cash 1 had in my purse and found more water in my car along with some snacks. We stood at the bus stop hugging and said our goodbyes.

I still have a thousand questions as to why I struggled to act. Why did it take me many circles around the mall and an argument with myself? I once wavered between helping her and ignoring her. All I know for sure is that while walking toward that woman at the bus stop, a miracle happened.

There are opportunities for us to love every day. Maybe our doubts keep us from acting. Maybe we don't want to take the risk or be uncomfortable. That day, I learned how love answers when asked and how love both gives and receives.

International Women's Day is March 8. The first celebration was held in 1911, and the event was recognized by the United Nations starting in 1975.

It's a great time to think about the origin of the word "woman". Some people think the word “woman" is a compound(混合)of the words“womb”and“man". Not so. Rather,it's a compound of "wife" and "man", a combination that can be traced back to Old English. You see, when Old English was first being spoken in the 5th century AD, there were two distinct words for men and women: "wer" meant "adult male",and "wif” meant “adult female". There was a third word,“man", which simply meant "person"or "human being”. These words could be combined:“wer" plus“man"(in the form of "waepman")meant "adult male person" and“wif” plus"man”("wilman") meant “adult female person”.

But by the Middle English period, usage standardized into"wimman” and "wommon” And by the 1600s, the versions we know today were established:"woman". Those middle forms,“wimnan"and "wommon"with the two M's in the middle, remind me of Noah Webster's efforts to simplify English spelling by suggesting changing the spelling "woman” to“wimmen" to have the spelling better match the pronunciation. He put that in his 1806 Compendious Dictionary o f the English Language, but it didn't become popular.

And the Old English word for "adult male" evolved into a simplified form. The compound word "weapman" melted into the simple word we use today: "man".

Maybe the lesson to take from all this is that the role of women in society has always been complex. Whatever the case, the word "woman" today was originally a compound of the Old English words for"woman” and “human being”.

28. Where can you find the first source of the word "woman"?

A. In paragraph 1. B. In paragraph 2. C. In paragraph 3. D. In paragraph 4.

29.Why did Webster suggest changing the spelling "woman" to "wimmen"?

A. To link the spelling to the pronunciation.

B. To keep up with the times more closely.

 C. To satisfy the readers’ requests D. To make it easy to pronounce.

30. When did the spelling "woman" started?

A. By the 1600s. B. In the 5th century AD,

C. In 1809. D. By the Middle English period

31. What is the purpose of the author in writing the lex1?

A.To tell us the origin of Women's Day.

B. To tell us the history of the word "woman".

C. To stress the roles women are playing

D. To teach us the development of a language

D

Unlike human students, computers don't seem to get bored or frustrated when a lesson is too easy or too hard. But just like humans. they do better when a lesson plan is "just right? for their level of skill. Coming up with the right curriculum isn't easy, though. so computer scientists wondered; What if they could make machines design their own?

That's what researchers have done in several new studies to create artificial intelligence(AI) that can figure out how best to teach itself. The work could speed learning in self-driving cars and household robots, and it might even help handle previously unsolvable math problems. In one of the new experiments, an Al program tries to quickly reach a destination by navigating a 2D grid(网格)populated with solid blocks. The"agent" improves its abilities through a process called reinforcement learning, a kind of trial and error.

To help it navigate increasingly complex worlds. the researchers considered two ways in which it could draw the maps. One method randomly distributed blocks; with it. the Al didn't learn much. Another method remembered what the AI had struggled with in the past. and maximized difficulty accordingly. But that made the worlds too hard-and sometimes even impossible-to complete.

So the scientists created a setting, using a new approach they called PAIRED. First, they coupled their Al with a nearly identical one, which they called the antagonist(敌手).Then. they had a third AI design the world that was easy for the antagonist-but hard for the original protagonist(主角). That kept the tasks just at the edge of the protagonist's ability to solve. The designer used a neural network to learn its task over many trials, After training. the protagonist solved the problems offered to it successfully. The PAIRED approach is a clever way to get Al to learn. says Bart Selman, a computer scientist at Cornell University

 and president of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.

32.Which of the following is a problem for computer scientists?

A.Designing a suitable lesson plan for computers.

B. Asking human students to be active in a lesson

C.Helping students to work out their owe curriculum

D. Improving human students' computer skills quickly

33. What did the two ways used by the researchers have in common?

A.They were practical for the Al research. B. They both had their own weakness.

C. They were too hard for the AI to teach itself. D. They both made the AI struggle with the past.

34. What does Bart Selman think of the PAIRED approach?

A.Difficult B.Simple. C.Promising D.Useless

35. What is the best title for the text?

A.The application of artificial intelligence B.The impact of artificial intelligence

C. Artificial intelligence researches navigation for self-driving

D. Artificial intelligence designs lesson plans for itself

W:Good afternoon, everyone. Thanks for joining our book club's discussion today. The focus on today's sharing is Dr. Blonna's book on different kinds of stress. The title is Stress in a Changing World. In this book.

Dr. Blonna argues that stress is a common experience that people all over the world share. His research suggests recent changes in people's lifestyle have caused more stress. Stress causes the body to experience physical changes such as a faster heartbeat and breathing rate. Too much stress can cause serious physical or emotional problems, including trouble sleeping, sickness, and pain. However, it is important to point out that stress is not always bad, some of which can actually improve a person's well-being. The right level of stress can make a person feel stronger and more energetic. Now let's welcome our first member John to tell his insights into this book.
